Preparation of Spinel LiMn_2O_4 Cathode Materials for Li-ion Batteries Based on Sol-gel Process

应用溶胶法由CH3COOL i.2H2O、Mn(CH3COO)2和已二酸制备含锂、锰的干凝胶,经高温焙烧制得尖晶石锰酸锂L iMn2O4.XRD分析显示,该尖晶石样品的结晶度随焙烧温度而升高,容量同时增加,但如超过800℃,则循环性能变差.延长焙烧时间,容量呈先增后降趋势.优化后的焙烧条件为750℃、20 h.以此制备的L iMn2O4初始放电容量为130 mAh.g-1,经过15次循环后仍达125 mAh.g-1.Spinel LiMn_(2)O_(4) was prepared from CH_(3)COOLi·2H_(2)O,Mn(CH_(3)COO)_(2) and adipic acid based on sol-gel process.XRD analysis showed that when the sintering temperature increased,the crystallinity increased,and the capacity also increased.However,its cycleability reached a maximum value at 750 ℃.The sintering duration also influenced on the capacity.The optimized performance was obtained when the sintering was carried out at 750 ℃ for 20 h.Under these conditions,as-prepared spinel LiMn_(2)O_(4) presented the initial discharge capacity of 130 mAh g~(-1) and 125 mAh g~(-1) at 15~(th) cycle.作者联系地址：清华大学核能与新能源技术研究院材料化学实验室,清华大学核能与新能源技术研究院材料化学实验室,清华大学核能与新能源技术研究院材料化学实验室,清华大学核能与新能源技术研究院材料化学实验室,清华大学核能与新能源技术研究院材料化学实验室 北京102201,北京102201,北京102201,北京102201,北京102201Author's Address: *,WANG Li,ZHANG Guo-yun,JIANG Chang-yin,WAN Chun-RongMaterials Chemistry Laboratory,Institute of Nuclear Energy & New Energy Technology,Tsinghua University,Beijing 102201,Chin

JUNO Sensitivity on Proton Decay p→νˉK+p\to \bar\nu K^+ Searches

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a large liquid scintillator detector designed to explore many topics in fundamental physics. In this paper, the potential on searching for proton decay in $p\to \bar\nu K^+$ mode with JUNO is investigated.The kaon and its decay particles feature a clear three-fold coincidence signature that results in a high efficiency for identification. Moreover, the excellent energy resolution of JUNO permits to suppress the sizable background caused by other delayed signals. Based on these advantages, the detection efficiency for the proton decay via $p\to \bar\nu K^+$ is 36.9% with a background level of 0.2 events after 10 years of data taking. The estimated sensitivity based on 200 kton-years exposure is $9.6 \times 10^{33}$ years, competitive with the current best limits on the proton lifetime in this channel

JUNO sensitivity on proton decay p → ν K + searches*

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a large liquid scintillator detector designed to explore many topics in fundamental physics. In this study, the potential of searching for proton decay in the $p\to \bar{\nu} K^+$ mode with JUNO is investigated. The kaon and its decay particles feature a clear three-fold coincidence signature that results in a high efficiency for identification. Moreover, the excellent energy resolution of JUNO permits suppression of the sizable background caused by other delayed signals. Based on these advantages, the detection efficiency for the proton decay via $p\to \bar{\nu} K^+$ is 36.9% ± 4.9% with a background level of $0.2\pm 0.05({\rm syst})\pm$$0.2({\rm stat})$ events after 10 years of data collection. The estimated sensitivity based on 200 kton-years of exposure is $9.6 \times 10^{33}$ years, which is competitive with the current best limits on the proton lifetime in this channel and complements the use of different detection technologies
